There was an article in the New York Times
looking at how 1 in 4 American households and 1 in 2 in Manhattan now have a single occupant.

The article also talks about how living alone might lead to quirkiness, eccentricies, and general weirdness in the comfort of our own homes where we are free to be ourselves. It is being called Secret Single Behavior.

Some examples of secret single behavior would be:

~ walking around naked at 2am eating peanut butter from a jar while drinking OJ from the carton

~ unique sleep habit cycles without a routine schedule

~ weird meal habits i.e. eating the same thing for breakfast, lunch and supper (hey, it was on sale) or having doritos as a meal

~ leaving the bathroom door open (which apparently is a habit we might take with us when we visit others)

~running stuff by our pets who are notorious good listeners

~drinking champagne in the shower at 8am

~washing vegetables while showering

~playing video games for days without sleeping

~unique home only outfits

I dont know if this stuff is really the result of living alone or just people being people.

So, I'm wondering, do you have any little quirks or eccentricies that you attribute to living alone? Do you ever take them with you when visiting others?
